2022-05-20 Horus Program

I have been making a new graphical calendar program for a while now. It's not done yet, but I'm making progress. It's a custom GUI made with SDL for rendering, so it's quite responsive, and has decent animations.

It can calculate a form of Sundial Time, which is used so that it can calculate Jewish Prayer times. Islamic prayer times are more complicated to calculate, so that's not done yet.

It can also handle 4 different calendars atm: Gregorian, Julian, Jewish Calendar, and Islamic Kuwait Algorithm (this usually has a setting to tweak when months start as well, but that's not finished yet).

It can calculate most Jewish holidays, and some Christian Eastern Orthodox holidays.

Since tasks go very well with calendars, it will also handle tasks as well. I plan on having at least three different ways to view and manipulate events/tasks: the usual Calendar View (day, week, month), Kanban board, and a timeline view that basically looks like a waterfall timeline. The timeline view is mainly used for tasks/events that take place over many days or months.

You will also be able to add events based on a specific calendar, which is especially useful for recurring events (since the Gregorian Date would change with each recurrence).

Finally, the program will take a little bit of inspiration from Bullet Journalling, as well. This will include things like collections and habit trackers.

Here's a list of images to show the Work in Progress
